So how would one evangelise a partner without opening up a reciprocal effect? IE, how does one invite a partner to mass without opening onself to being invited to a protestant/non-denom service?
FWIW I would not be afraid to attend the non-Catholic worship service, although not as a substitute for the Mass, which it clearly is not. But as a time of prayer and praise, you can participate with your partner in good conscience. Meanwhile your explanation that you need to go to Mass Saturday evening or early Sunday or whenever because of the Eucharist clearly indicates the difference and that it is important to you.
